Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 4

The sequent depths in a hydraulic jump formed in a 5m wide rectangular channel are 0.2m and 1m. The discharge in the channel is:

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 4

Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 5

Maximum size of a fillet weld for a plate of square edge is

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 5

The maximum size of a fillet weld is obtained by subtracting 1.5 mm from the thickness of the thinner member to be jointed. This specification limits the size of the fillet weld so that total strength may be developed without overstressing the adjacent metal.

Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 6

The number of simultaneous equations to be solved in the slope deflection method, is equal to :

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 6

For every joint a slope deflection equation will be written of the form 


Mab = MFab + 2EI/L [2θ_A+θ_B-3Δ/L]
Thus, number of simultaneous equations available will be equal to the number of joints.

Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 7

A rectangular channel carries a certain flow for which the alternate depths are found to be 3m and 1m. The critical depth (in m) for this flow is:

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 7


Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 8

In a triangular channel, the critical depth is 2m. The corresponding least possible specific energy is:

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 8

Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 9

If the Froude number of flow in a rectangular channel at a depth of flow of y0 is F0, then what is yc/y0 equal to?

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 9

Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 10

A rectangular channel 3m wide carries uniform flow of water at a rate of 7 cumec/sec at a depth of 1.5m. If there is a local rise of 0.5m in the bed, calculate the change in upstream depth of flow?

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 10

As bed level  rises by 0.5m, specific energy at section  2 decreasees 

Since, E2<Ec hence there is change in upstream depth  condition.

Increase in upstream depth 
= 1.625 - 1.5
= 0.125m

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 12


Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 13

The sequent depth ratio in a hydraulic jump formed in a horizontal rectangular channel is 16.48. The Froude number of the super critical stream is :

Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 14

A mild slope channel enters a lake with a sudden drop in bed. If the depth of water in the lake measured above the channel bed at its outlet yL is greater than the critical depth, then the depth of flow in the canal at the outlet yd :

Detailed Solution for Test: Open Channel Flow - Question 14

To determine the depth of flow in the canal at the outlet, we need to consider the characteristics of the channel and the lake. Here's a step-by-step explanation:
1. Mild Slope Channel: The channel leading to the lake is described as a mild slope channel. This means that the slope of the channel bed is relatively gentle.
2. Sudden Drop in Bed: At the outlet of the channel, there is a sudden drop in the bed. This means that the channel bed abruptly decreases in elevation.
3. Depth of Water in the Lake: The depth of water in the lake measured above the channel bed at its outlet is denoted as yL.
4. Critical Depth: The critical depth (yc) is the depth of flow at which the specific energy is at a minimum. It is the depth at which the flow transitions from subcritical to supercritical.
5. Comparison: The question states that if the depth of water in the lake measured above the channel bed at its outlet (yL) is greater than the critical depth, then the depth of flow in the canal at the outlet (yd) is equal to the normal depth (y0).
6. Answer: Therefore, the correct answer is option D: y0.
To summarize, when the depth of water in the lake measured above the channel bed at its outlet is greater than the critical depth, the depth of flow in the canal at the outlet is equal to the normal depth.
